Leadership & Management
The overall operation of a department can be separated into two functions.
Leadership Management
![Page 13: How to Advance your Career](https://reader034.vdocuments.us/reader034/viewer/2022052623/559917bd1a28abcf478b4572/html5/thumbnails/13.jpg)
• Both require a strategy to be successful and can be carried out simultaneously.
• Both are necessary for the execution of excellence.
• When performed well, this allows everyone and every system to move in the same direction.
• Sometimes intertwined.

Leadership
is… achieving results with p .

The goal, objectives, potential for each undertaking must be established.

To get a better result a leader must remove a barrier or improve or change the way they are doing something (a process).
Need to consider:

Management
Management is totally different than leadership. It is the creation of excellence in the execution of duties, systems, programs, and implementation of budgets.
Management is:
• Producing orderly results; promoting stability
• Development of a structure which will give organizational clarity, efficiency, and stability
• A clear set of tasks with staff accountable to perform those tasks
• A clear budget planning process
• A deductive process of setting targets and goals

Management
• Develop systems; processes
– On boarding
– Ordering balls
– Reviews
– Cleanliness
– For programs
– Have lesson plans
• Have KPI’s
If it can’t be measured; it can’t be managed

How to manage

Bicycle Analogy
A bicycle has two wheels of equal importance but each provides a different function
• The front wheel steers
• The back wheel provides power
Front wheel skills are leadership/ interpersonal relationship skills. They steer or guide human interactions throughout the job
Back wheel skills are process skills. They provide power to accomplish tasks throughout the job
